Crean would be an upgrade over Martin. They should be thrilled to get him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

You know your still a blue blood when you have a 1000 page thread concerning the firing of your teams coach. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I would be ok with it as well if I knew for sure he could recruit like Sean. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I saw a suggestion on another forum that Crean may not have been willing to play the Porter game as a reason for talks with Missouri breaking down. That was an interesting take as It was a little suspicious how quick that fell into place once Martin was hired. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I posted this in the Fred Glass thread also, but IU just got taken to task on around the horn for the whole NIT debacle. Crean mentioned as having a hot seat but they thought he would be back. Not that they know anything. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I was watching Around the Horn and lo and behold Indiana was on the agenda. The topic of discussion centered on Indiana not wanting to devalue Assembly Hall by playing an NIT home game. Fred really has given the school a black eye. It doesn't matter if that wasn't the real reason. It's about public perception. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Glass's seat being hot does not surprise me after the situation with Wilson and now the Georgia Tech debacle. If and when Crean is let go, can he even be trusted to make the appropriate hire?

I expected a press conference today to announce either he is staying or going. I would imagine if it doesn't happen today, we may be waiting awhile. It doesn't make sense to have that sort of announcement while the tournament is going on, but hey we did turn down a home game so who knows.

IU has a large talent gap over GT. Turnovers are killing any momentum that we could accrue. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I hope he sticks around and doesn't leave Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

It's hard to tell whether they give a crap tonight or just going through the motions. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I didn't know any college teams were sponsored by Russell. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

There was an article on peegs today from Rabjohns where he interviewed Gary Parrish concerning Crean. It seems the national media is finally picking up on how ugly things are getting. He said Crean would be better off with a fresh start. http://www.scout.com/college/indiana/story/1762743-i-think-he-wants-to-stay Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I saw this Kent Sterling video posted on another forum and thought it hits on a lot of what is being talked about here concerning the NIT and Crean.

If no change is made, It makes you wonder how full Assembly Hall will be to watch us play RPI 345 Arkansas Pine Buff. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Wow, this board may burn down from the rioting. I guess we must have all fed off of each other in our beliefs that he will be fired. To say that I am disappointed is an understatement. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I would agree with this. I have watched games with family and when I bring up that Crean needs to go they look at me like I am crazy. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Would Tony Bennett ever be tempted to head there if Gard was let go? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I can't figure out why they are trying to run with us. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I am thinking we have to make the tourney before I start sweating. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Blackmon playing like an All American. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Those statements he made were absolutely ridiculous. You got fired from your college basketball coaching position. I mean we all get fired up about IU, but in the end it's a game. To harbor that kind of grudge shows what kind of person he really is. I feel sorry for him. Must be miserable. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

HickoryHoosier pretty much saying that even making the tourney won't bring Crean back. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Iowa's defense was awful. Doubt we shoot like that against Wisconsin. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

ESPN throwing out that a win against Wisconsin could lead to an at large. I think no way. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
